Big Sky Secures $190M Financing For Ten Healthcare Properties Across Four States

/in , /by

JLL Capital Markets just announced that it has arranged approximately $190 million acquisition financing for ten healthcare properties totaling 857,779 square feet.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Big Sky Medical Real Estate, in securing the five-year, floating-rate loan from a bank syndication led by Capital One Healthcare.

“Despite a challenging environment, our team and JLL persevered and successfully syndicated this loan to close out a successful 2022 for Big Sky’s partnership with GFH,” said Jason L. Signor, founder and CEO of Big Sky Medical. “We value our relationships with Capital One and the syndication group.”

The properties, which are collectively 87% occupied, serve a wide range of healthcare uses, including outpatient medical office buildings, ambulatory surgery centers, diagnostic imaging centers and more. The portfolio includes:

• Pyramids North, 9201 North Central Expressway, Dallas, Texas
• Pyramids South, 9101 North Central Expressway, Dallas, Texas
• Providence Park, 2501 Earl Rudder Freeway, College Station, Texas
• Greenpark MOB, 7515 Main St., Houston, Texas
• Peninsula Orthopedic Associates, 1675 Woodbrooke Dr., Salisbury, Maryland
• Tidal Health Cardiology, 400 Eastern Shore Dr., Salisbury, Maryland
• Pelican Professional Center, 42388 Pelican Professional Park, Hammond, Louisiana
• Texas A&M Health Science Center, 8441 Highway 47 West, College Station, Texas
• Peak Surgical Center, 610 North Coit Road, Richardson, Texas
• Valley Ortho & River Surgical Institute, 609 East Orangeburg Avenue, Modesto, California

JLL’s 2022 Healthcare and Medical Office Perspective highlights that patients are moving to sunbelt states and retirement markets such as Texas, Louisiana and California at exponential rates creating more demand for medical office buildings. As a result, medical office occupancy has ticked upwards as demand intensifies in a moderate construction environment which has gradually increased rents for the 11th quarter in a row.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by Managing Directors Timothy Joyce and John Chun and Director Anthony Sardo.

“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with the Big Sky Medical team to help capitalize this outstanding portfolio of medical office assets in diverse, high growth markets. We would like to thank the lenders for stepping up in a challenging environment and providing a great debt package for these acquisitions,” says Joyce.

CVS Considering $10B Purchase Of Oak Street Health

/in , /by

CVS is reportedly looking to expand its healthcare offerings by purchasing Oak Street Health.

The acquisition would value Oak Street at more than $10 billion, Bloomberg News reported late Monday (Jan. 9), citing sources with knowledge of the matter who said talks between the two companies are ongoing. PYMNTS has reached out to both companies; CVS declined to comment and Oak Street did not reply.

The deal would further expand CVS’ move into the world of primary care. The pharmacy giant last year agreed to purchase Signify Health in an $8 billion deal.

Headquartered in Dallas, Signify has a network of 10,000 medical professionals in all 50 states and uses analytics and technology to offer in-home care to health plans, employers, physician groups and health systems.

“This acquisition will enhance our connection to consumers in the home and enable providers to better address patient needs as we execute our vision to redefine the health care experience,” said CVS Health President and CEO Karen S. Lynch. “In addition, this combination will strengthen our ability to expand and develop new product offerings in a multi-payor approach.”

Last year also saw the debut of CVS Health Virtual Primary Care, a virtual care solution available through a digital platform.

“The program connects CVS Health’s services, clinical expertise, and data for a more coordinated and consumer-centric health care experience,” CVS said in May 2022, adding it “enables consumers to choose care when and where they want, continuing CVS’ shift into primary care.”

The company was also considering the purchase of Cano Health, which operates primary care centers in eight states and works mostly with patients from the Medicare Advantage program.

Oak Street, founded in 2012, serves Medicare recipients and has locations in 21 states, according to its website. It specializes in preventative care, “including personalized wellness plans, integrated health services, and educational and social activities,” the website says.

And CVS isn’t alone in shifting more directly into healthcare. As PYMNTS noted in September of last year, “Big Retail” has helped usher the healthcare industry fully into the 21st century.

“For the Walmarts and the Amazons of the world, offering value care and virtual care creates a new avenue to connect payments to a broader ecosystem,” PYMNTS wrote.

To that end, Walmart joined forces with UnitedHealth Group in a deal that, among other things,  offers virtual healthcare services through a 10-year partnership. Amazon, meanwhile, announced last July that it was purchasing tech-powered primary care provider One Medical for about $3.9 billion.

Remedy And Kayne Anderson In Joint Venture Buy 13-Property MOB Portfolio In 8 States For $131M

/in /by

Remedy Medical Properties, in a joint venture with Kayne Anderson Real Estate, has acquired the Project Prism medical office portfolio, a collection of 13 properties in eight states totaling 300,328 square feet.

The fully leased assets traded for $131 million, with the participation of JLL. The previous owner was Montecito Medical Real Estate, CommercialEdge data shows.

The medical office buildings are leased on a long-term basis with a weighted average lease term of 10.4 years.

 “The properties’ tenants have strong patient bases and track records, some of them being nationally renowned companies,” Remedy CIO Joe Magliochetti stated in prepared remarks.

Optum-Marsh, Halo Breast Center, Jordan Young Institute and Precision Spine Care are some of the health-care providers that occupy the facilities. On-site medical services include orthopedics, neurology, gastroenterology, radiology, imaging and surgery, as well as general spine and pain management, family medicine and other services.

Previous Joint Venture Acquisitions

The Project Prism portfolio is not the first acquisition for the Remedy-Kayne Anderson duo, as the joint venture’s purchasing history dates back to early 2022. In February, the partnership, alongside MedProperties Realty Advisors, formed a $350 million-plus joint venture to recapitalize a 23-asset health-care real estate portfolio totaling more than 1 million square feet.

Later that year, the companies added eight medical office buildings to their joint investments. The properties, located in Florida, Texas, North Carolina and Tennessee, changed hands for $91 million.
